Well, this is it. Today, in about five hours my plane takes off, all being well, and the adventure begins. At least the 16 hour flight before the adventure begins!
I think I'm ready. I'm packed, my documents are in place and all the loose ends are tied up. There's no turning back and I'm about to take the first real step in this whole new life adventure on which I am about to embark.
Last night the curtain came down on my debating career at St Hilda's. My wonderful Year 12 Team made the Grand Final and from all reports did the most amazing job, as they always do. Unfortunately the decision didn't go our way, but it doesn't matter, winning is not the thing. Congratulations to them and to Sniz who was named Speaker of the Night. Also, huge well done to the Year 8 Team who did win, fabulous effort. Wonderful job to all our debaters because St Hilda's won the inaugral Most Succesful School Shield. Yeah us!!
I'm finishing off now, because I don't want to cry. I've managed to control the tears so far, not probably going to continue at the airport.
I'll keep this up, but next time I write I will be in Abu Dhabi.
